Improved flaps compared to its predecessor, enabling shorter takeoffs and landings for greater operational flexibility
Ye-36B Husky
The Ye-36B Husky is a utility aircraft specifically designed for operations in polar regions. Developed from the original Ye-36, it first took flight in 1936. The aircraft is powered by a single R-2211 engine, reaching a top speed of approximately 230 mph (or 260 mph in a dive). Due to its design, it never exceeds 300 mph, but it boasts exceptional low-speed handling and the ability to take off and land on unpaved runways.
To enhance its performance in snowy environments, the Ye-36B is equipped with sledges, allowing it to operate on snow-covered airfields and open snowfields. Additionally, it features improved flaps compared to its predecessor, enabling shorter takeoffs and landings for greater operational flexibility.

@Giosal13 Oh, no es tan bueno, solo una construcción simple.
@WinsWings claro este es el mejor avion😄
@Sockdragger awesome. I will check you out on Discord
@WinsWings I don't think a turboprop would be necessary, may be later for a modernized kitbashed bushplane, but for now the radial engine has up to 2000 HP power. You rated yours at 1200. So you still have some spare. Also a floatplane has the whole ocean for a runway, so it can pack some extra weight.
Ps, if you want to talk things through, hit me up on the Discord server. My handle is the same as here: sockdragger
@Giosal13 Gracias mi amigo
@WinsWings wow este avión es increible!
@WinsWings hello
@Husky12345 Oh hi Husky!
pin me
me is husky
@Sockdragger Well, if there is a request I have to do it. This time, I should upgrade the engine to a turboprop, from the current radial engine. Turboprop will be more powerful and lightweight. And use the floats to store some extra fuel. How do you think
Love the way the automatic flaps work.
Next up? floatplane version for all Canadian bush pilots who want to fly in the summer as well?
@JBPAviation lol
This deserves a NOICE
@WinsWings Np :)
@UnitedinOne90 Thanks, that is fast
